The story:

He was possibly lost in his thoughts? Or was he just enjoying the flow of his consciousness?

I met this man just outside the Radisson Hotel in Kathmandu. He has such a soulful look. I asked if I could photograph him and he said "yes". He smoked cigarettes, he carried a sack, he even called some of his friends to join in. It was very brief. But the memory stays.

I will send them the picture that I took.

Wonderful portrait. Colours are amazing and the sharpness is perfect.

Hi Manuel,
I don't visit in a regular basis but now is the moment to share my critique with your excelent work. As usual your great quality in portraits and close-up's. And this one is great and so well captured. The expression of the eyes and the face of this man are your Title Reference and Guide. Excelent close-up approach, excelent colors, fine sharpness, contrast and a perfect enquadrement. Splendid focused and the eyes are fantastic.

Congratulations and the Best to you.
Fernando

very nice portrait Manuel, nicely composed, lovely colors. I don't think he is lost in his thoughts, but rather he poses nicely for you, i like his smiling eyes. nice work

Hi Manual,
Before I read your note, I was impressed by his eyes. You put the right name to it "soulful". This is a very great portrait, IMO. He seems to look at otherworldly things. Nice smile too. You have a special gift to be able to approach people like this and able to get that. Well, I'm impressed!
Claire

Really nice portrait Manuel. Like his look - like the colors and like the dark background.

Just nice.

Hi Manuel,

Is he the same "CALM SOUL"? But looking a bit diff than the other picture. His face is very interesting and his eyes are full of emotion. The sharpness is very good and also the color.

Good portrait, Manuel! How did you capture it so naturally if you aksed his premission? did you wait till he got used to you and ONLY then captured him?

Very good portrait ! Before reading the note, I wouldn't have supposed he was posing for you !
thank you for sharing!

hi manny...
rarely have i seen a portrait this sensitive. the colour, the texture, the composition... everything works extremely well. the expression on the man's face is so soulful. a great close look at life.
bishan.

this picture is really speaking to me !

i love everything here !

gosh, you really great !

excellent portrait !. but i like it because it is an original pose. but it also has excellent clarity. sharp. i would suggest cropping out most all of the blue pole on the left.

Great Portrait. This pic makes me happy i dont know y. but i think that look on his face is the reason. TFS
